This question arises from jack-keyboard rather than jack-smf-utils. The basic
framework is very similar, but jack-keyboard gets input from a gui rather than
from a smf.
So the idea is that you press a key on the keyboard and an event handler gets
called. The event handler calls queue_new_message(int, int, int), which
creates a midi event ev on the stack. Then it calls queue_message(&ev).
queue_message() copies ev to a ringbuffer. Okay, so far, so good.
queue_new_message() exits and ev goes out of scope, so only the copy on the
ringbuffer remains.
The next process cycle process_callback() is invoked. It calls
process_midi_output(), which takes data from the ringbuffer and moves it to
output_port's buffer.
Is this what's happening?
Now for receiving timing info from Jack. Where's a good place to look for code
that explains how to get (and display in a gui widget) the current time while
transport is rolling? There's QJackCtl of course. Is there something simpler,
more of an example program?

Rooms were comfortable, bed was excellent. Facility well updated. Location was perfect.
Staff at front desk was less than welcoming. Showed up precisely at check-in time young girl at front desk seemed to hope I walked away and seemed annoyed she had to actually get up from her chair and stop texting to address me (I was the only one in the lobby). After about 10 minutes she told me no rooms were ready......(at check-in time). She said we would have to come back later. This put a significant wrinkle in our plans. No HUGE deal, but she didn't seem to care AT ALL.

This place was the most filthiest place I've ever stayed. The mattress had large brown stains on it. The comforter had large cigarette burn holes in it. The first room we were looking at smelled like someone smoked several packs of cigarettes in it, so we asked to move. The next room was no better! Then it looked like drug addicts and prostitutes just hanging around. I got out quick! Horrible place.

"I LOVE my Christmas cards! I decided to do my cards early, therefore I had the time to peruse many online options. Hands down, tinyprints had the best options! And those who know me will agree, I'm a bit of a perfectionist and I LOVED that the designers at tinyprints are too! I asked for many changes to my order, from photoshopping to adding an extra border around a photo and the tinyprints designers were quick and helpful with each request. Excellent customer service!! My goal was to make my cards perfect...AND THEY ARE!"
"I have received other cards from friends that have used Tiny Prints in the past and decided to get a head start on our Christmas cards. Our family loved the design of the Distinctly Happy holiday card and chose it which was not easy as there were so many other lovely designs. We are thrilled with our cards! The quality of the paper, design and text was professional, vibrant and of excellent quality. Could not be happier! We can't wait to share our cards this year with family and friends! Thanks Tiny Prints for making it all so easy to have personalized cards that look amazing!"
"This was the perfect holiday card and turned out just as it appeared on screen. We had gotten quite a few comments about our card this past holiday season."
"Great card. Since it was square and would have required extra postage I got the rectangular envelopes that square card fits in but no extra postage requird. They were very tight to get card in and only fit one way. Would not get these envelopes again!"
"This was my first time using Tiny Prints and I was thrilled with the result. The cards are colorful, happy, and convey my wishes! Another plus: I ordered them on a Wednesday and they arrived at my door on Saturday!"

West Kelowna News
Premier visits fire zone
Premier Christy Clark made the first visit to her West Kelowna riding Friday to survey damage caused by the Smith Creek wildfire.
She says while the province's firefighting budget has already been spent, they will not stop spending more money to fight forest fires burning around BC and will continue to dip into contingency funds throughout the rest of the year.
"I can tell you right now, this is our focus. Right here. This community is the number one focus," she says.
"We are not going to stop spending money because it's expensive, we are going to do everything we can to protect people and property across the province."
Clark says there are a number of emergency services on the ground and they've also doubled the resources in the air, in order to fight this fire.
The 400 hectare blaze is believed to have been human caused and Clark pleaded with the public to be more vigilant when out in the province's back country. She also pointed to the dry timbered conditions partially caused by the mountain pine beetle as a contributing factor, along with noticeable climate change.
"We have to be more and more prepared every year, because we can't expect this to get easier. I think it's only going to get harder."
As for the Premier's home in West Kelowna, it's not immediately at stake.
"I haven't been ordered evacuated. But I can sure sympathize with everybody in (the registration/reception center)."
She also told the assembled media that an earlier reported threat to the Westside's power supply has diminished, and said she has talked to BC Hydro about getting a second power unit in the future.
Clark will be spending the later part of her day meeting with evacuees and other emergency personnel.

The Daily GOOD
Get our daily dose of information and inspiration. Sign up Now ›
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. –Mark Twain
Magellan, Columbus, Da Gama, Amundsen, Cook, Eriksson, Lewis & Clark, Shackleton—all names synonymous with adventure and exploration. They circumnavigated the world, discovered continents and became the subjects of history books. There was an unknown, and it was meant to be explored.
In the modern age of the Internet, cell phones, and around-the-world air travel, that sense of the unknown has changed, but it certainly hasn't disappeared. While there may not be entire continents up for grabs, modern day exploring is just as important as it was during the Age of Exploration, if not more so.
A smaller, more connected world means it's much easier to live under the illusion that we know everything, have seen everything, and can get access to everything. After all, we don't risk falling off the edges of the earth because we think it's flat. But the more you start to explore, the more you realize how little you have seen and known. Exploration isn't just for the personal journey—it's for the journey that inevitably makes you a better and stronger part of your global community.
There is always room for discovery. You just have to make the time and space for it. And with this sentiment in mind, here's a checklist for the modern-day explorer:
1. Appreciate the small adventures
You don't have to be on the other side of the world to explore. Start in your own backyard: Meet a neighbor; photograph an alleyway; start a guerilla garden; visit the local library; buy a new vegetable you've never tried at the farmers market. Small adventures are what lead to the big ones.
2. Break out of your comfort zone
Exploring is about pushing yourself—going beyond what you know. Sometimes that's hard. Sometimes it's painful. Sometimes it's overwhelming. But it's also what keeps us fueled, inspiring us to move forward and keep trying new things. Good things happen the farther you are from your comfort zone. Dare to step out of it.
3. Be inspired
Surround yourself with the kind of people and ideas that keep your brain running. You never know when a new idea or a new plan will come. Allow time for creativity and say no to the things that you know drain your energy.
4. Open yourself to serendipity
Exploring is about losing a little bit of control; letting the world take you wherever it intends. Follow multiple paths to see where they lead, even if you don't know the destination. Allow yourself to make spur-of-the-moment decisions. Leave the proverbial doors open. As Alexander Graham Bell once said, "When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us."
5. Share
You know what keeps you exploring? When you share your adventures with those around you. Exploring is ultimately about learning, and the more we pull in the rest of our community, the more we inspire others to do the same. Share the explorer spirit, tell us about your last adventure—no matter how big or small—in the comments below.
Join us in exploring and protecting the GOOD Outdoors. To participate in our exploration challenge, simply click here to say you'll Do It and we will keep you updated by email on the actions we can all take to to preserve and protect places that mean so much to us.

One should rarely heap praise upon division rivals. While it might seem like a technically sound thing to do, it simply leaves you feeling a little dirty inside and you fall asleep at night knowing you've probably put bad karma into the world.

Fat Man blogger TJ "The Dude" Johnson posts The Dude's Mail Revue on Thursdays, in which he takes your questions about the state of the Denver Broncos. Got a titillating question? Put a dollar bill into the Dude's G-String and he might answer it—after bowling practice.
TJ, it is with great sadness that I write to you to tell you that I did not make the Broncos Cheerleading squad for 2010. Things were going great until I suddenly pulled my hamstring during my routine as I was rocking to Bad Romance from Lady Gaga. I tried to gut through it. I tried to imagine I was Kyle Orton, playing through the pain. But finally, it was too much. I knew I was done-for when they asked me if I'd rather dance to Katy Perry.

"If you haven't played the game of football, you couldn't possibly understand."
--Ryan Leaf, 1998
One of my favorite blogs on the web is Shutdown Corner over at Yahoo Sports. They don't take football as seriously as your typical Oakland resident and they generally focus on the lighter side of today's NFL--always good traits to have. Recently, they brought us some hard-hitting information on the woman that charged $95,000 on Reggie Wayne's credit card, and previously waxed poetic on Jared Allen's mullet lifestyle. In short, the kind of stuff that is simply awesome.
My favorite thing they do, however, is to point out some rather interesting and controversial perspectives of athletes.
Which brings me to a recent quote from Aaron Rodgers. In the last few months, Rodgers has been feeling a little frisky (or upset that he was chosen behind Alex Smith?) and has hammered draft analysts like Todd McShay on his Twitter account for, in his opinion, not being well versed enough in the technical aspects of reading defenses.
Last week, as I was discussing the Broncos upcoming schedule, I made a comment that you hear from time to time:
Denver, humidity, and early games never mix.

We interrupt your regularly-scheduled Tim Tebow news, for an important announcement.
3rd downs matter.
In the 2009, the Denver Broncos were pretty far from okay. The team's lack of success on 3rd down was more than just a drive staler, it was the black plague of the Broncos season. Whether through the air or on the ground, rain or shine, throwbacks or alternative jerseys, the Broncos mustered a hideously and perfectly grotesque Raiders-like 3rd-down conversion rate of 36.18%.
3rd-down conversions are, like turnovers and field position, another critical marker of success in the NFL. In fact, the team that won the battle on 3rd down in 2008 and 2009 (512 games) won about 70% of the time. The only team that reached the playoffs last year with a 3rd-down conversion rate of less than 40% was the New York Jets. And they needed help to get there.

In the NFL in 2009, coaches were only successful using instant replay for challenges 32% of the time. While throwing those red (or sometimes pink) flags are good exercise for the rotator cuff, they don't often result in overturning a call on the field.

With just over a minute left on the clock, every second that ticked away seemed like an eternity for the Sierra Timberwolves Tuesday.
RIPON – Matt Ratto has already shaken off of the early season cobwebs.
PATTERSON - Patterson's Cassie Coble buried six of seven free throws and pumped in 12 of the Tigers' 26 fourth-quarter points to upend Manteca 59-53 Tuesday.
After struggling offensive in the first half, Sierra High's sophomore boys basketball team came alive in the third quarter behind a stifling defensive effort to knock off visiting Lodi 40-39 in its season opener Tuesday.
MODESTO – Davis High outscored Manteca in the second quarter closing the halftime deficit to a point, but a 21-6 run to open the second half provided the distance in the Buffaloes' 77-60 Modesto City Classic championship win over the Spartans Saturday at Enochs High.
RIVERBANK - The Ripon Christian Knights remained undefeated and closed out the Ron Peterson Tipoff Classic with a tournament title in a 61-50 win over the host Riverbank Bruins.
FAIR OAKS - Third-seeded Sierra struck 13 seconds into its Sac-Joaquin Section Division III semifinal showdown against No. 2 Del Campo.
FAIR OAKS - There weren't a whole lot of smiles in the congregation that formed around the end zone following Sierra's 39-10 loss to Del Campo at Cougar Canyon Friday.
MODESTO – Scoring doesn't seem like it will be a problem for East Union freshman Jordan Kron, as he continued an impressive start to his high school career with his third consecutive 20-point outing in the Lancers' 80-55 win over the Buhach Colony Thunder Friday.
VALLEJO – The Manteca High girls basketball team bounced back from a three-point loss Thursday with an impressive 81-26 blowout over Deanza High.
ELK GROVE – The Sierra High Timberwolves rebounded from a tough first round loss in the Elk Grove Tournament with a strong performance in a 67-46 win over Florin High.
Ripon High captured its fourth straight Trans Valley League title this season and with it the conference's Most Valuable Player award in as many years.
MODESTO – Manteca High is just trying to get better each time it takes the court, and the Buffaloes seem to be doing just that with another impressive outing in their second round 90-70 win over Johansen in the Modesto City Classic Thursday at Enochs High.
MODESTO - Ripon wasn't always sharp on offense, but it more than made up for it on the defensive end during its Big Valley Christian Tournament opener Thursday.
WESTON RANCH - Weston Ranch High's Tony Gomes lost a tough 6-4 decision in the first match at 171 pounds Thursday night.
Weston Ranch isn't going to surprise anybody this year.
Ripon Christian has re-established itself as a force among Sac-Joaquin Section small-school powers following eight straight losing seasons.
The Ripon High boys soccer team didn't just lose the area's top player from a year ago.
Kevin Mendiola wheeled back with his right foot and took the ball off a bounce, sending it crashing into the back of the net.
An undefeated league record and a playoff win would be seen as successful for most teams. Ripon Christian did that in the 2013-2014 season, and for the Knights it was an off year.
In this her 10th year in the Sierra volleyball program, Timberwolves coach Trinity Johnson is looking to improve on last year's 1-13 Valley Oak League record – 3-19 overall – and she is not afraid to think outside the box to do it.

RIM shares down slightly a day ahead of BlackBerry 10 unveiling
The Canadian Press
Published Tuesday, January 29, 2013 5:35PM EST
Last Updated Tuesday, January 29, 2013 8:00PM EST
TORONTO -- Shares in Research In Motion closed down Tuesday ahead of the unveiling of its BlackBerry 10 lineup.
RIM stock ended the day down 56 cents, or 3.44 per cent, to $15.71 on the Toronto Stock Exchange, following a 7.6 per cent slide Monday.
As of Friday, RIM stock (TSX:RIM) had soared 50 per cent during January.
"The returns have been huge here, and for sure you're probably seeing some profit taking, some buy on rumour, sell on news," said Gareth Watson, vice-president of investment management and research at Richardson GMP Ltd.
"But also, the reality that the device is about to be launched... we don't know how successful it will be."
The smartphone pioneer once dominated the marketplace with its devices, which were affectionately dubbed "CrackBerrys" by devoted users.
But RIM has seen its marketshare eroded significantly by Apple's iPhone and Android-powered phones.
The unveiling of the new BB10 phones and operating system on Wednesday will mark the start of an advertising blitz that will stretch to social media, the Super Bowl and beyond, as RIM tries to regain its footing.
The smartphones are widely seen as a make-or-break product for the Waterloo, Ont., company.

text: The Gods are Monsters Written by Kendare Blake Greek gods have always been a source of fascination to me. They are on the one hand, gods, with all that descriptor entails: extreme power, knowledge, immortality. On the other hand, they are oddly human, with more flaws than even their mortal subjects. They're childish, petty, violent and not above backstabbing. When they do try to help they often do more harm than good (hiding someone by turning them into a tree is not a solution based on good judgment). And considering the oppressive way they ruled, and the punishments doled out at the slightest infraction, "god" probably isn't the best word for them.

Restarting Study Group
October 15, 2014 § Leave a comment
There has been lots of interest in restarting the study group! People have left comments here on the blog, written me, and spoken to me personally saying that they are eager for the study group to start back up. So here we are doing just that.
This first meet will be on November 3rd at Monkey Wrench from 7-9 pm.
The two suggestions we have had so far are Bob Black's Anarchy 101 or the soon to be published pamphlet from Crimethinc – To Change Everything: An Anarchist Appeal. I think it will be good to do something short for this first meet.
Please comment below and let us know what you think or maybe what you'd like to read.

Probably not. HDMI is made with anti-copy features such that typically one can only get the sound from an HDMI output, preamp outputs for each channel (analog line level), or through the speaker outputs.
HDMI audio can be such that its bandwidth would be too big for standard optical digital connections anyway.
If you want audio from the optical output, use non-HDMI digital inputs on your receiver from your sources.
You might be able to use the analog outputs. Look at the manual for the Yamaha to see if it will convert analog into digital for its digital output. Or if your Astro has analog inputs, you can connect directly to it.

The Art of War
Preview (read now) Add to my own site Give this ebook to a friend Add to my wishlist Author's page Publisher's page
The Art of War is almost certainly the most famous study of strategy ever written and has had an extraordinary influence on the history of warfare. The principles Sun-tzu expounded were utilized brilliantly by such great Asian war leaders as Mao Tse-tung, Giap, and Yamamoto. First translated two hundred years ago by a French missionary, Sun-tzu's Art of War has been credited with influencing Napoleon, the German General Staff, and even the planning for Desert Storm. Many Japanese companies make this book required reading for their key executives. And increasingly, Western businesspeople and others are turning to the Art of War for inspiration and advice on how to succeed in competitive situations of all kinds.
Unlike most editions of Sun-tzu currently available (many simply retreads of older, flawed translations), this superb new translation makes use of the best available classical Chinese manuscripts, including the ancient "tomb text" version discovered by archaeologists at Linyi, China.
Ralph Sawyer, an outstanding Western scholar of ancient Chinese warfare and a successful businessman in his own right, places this classic work of strategy in its proper historical context. Sawyer supplies a portrait of Sun-tzu's era and outlines several battles of the period that may have either influenced Sun-tzu or been conducted by him. While appreciative of the philosophical richness of the Art of War, this edition stresses Sun-tzu's practical origins and presents a translation that is both accurate and accessible.

I am unloading the May QQQQ puts (expiry Friday) at $2.85; I am still long the June 125s and September 120 SPY puts. I am also buying some QQQQs for a trade.
The Markets is a bit oversold, these are up nicely, and I don't wish to be a pig.
Given that the VIX calls are trading at a discount to how much they are in the money, I am compelled to hold onto them. You may wish to take the VIX options off the table, but I like having the hedge against any further dislocation.

9 Common Mistakes That Parents With Good Intentions Make Because Of Ignorance
October 7, 2014 | No Comments » | Topics: Life |
1. Removing the struggle from your child's life.
It's SO hard to watch them struggle but they need to learn how to cope with struggle itself as it is our best teacher.
When my oldest was about nine months old he still wasn't crawling. He was still technically my foster child at that point and we had a home nurse that came monthly to check on us. I asked her about the crawling and she pointed out how I had him sitting in a circle of toys that were all within his reach. He was happy and had no need to learn to crawl because life was being handed to him. She went over and pulled the toys away from his little circle of blanket. He of course cried and then I cried and she just kept me from giving the toys back. I told her that with his vision issues he could no longer see the toys and she didn't care and continued to hold me back. Well he didn't just magically start crawling but he did stop crying and start exploring.
You have to allow your children to struggle!
I use this story often with them when they think I'm being mean for not helping with something. I explain that sometimes as their mother it is my job to let them cry and figure things out for themselves. I'm not sure they fully understand it yet but when they're older they will.

The Paradox Of Life
September 26, 2014 | No Comments » | Topics: Life, Uncategorized |
The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider Freeways, but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.
We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.
We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.
We've learned how to make a living, but not a life. We've added years to life not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space. We've done larger things, but not better things.
We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.
These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete…
Remember; spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever.
Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.
Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a cent.
Remember, to say, 'I love you' to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.
Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again.
Give time to love, give time to speak! And give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

10 Habits Of Happy Couples
September 9, 2014 | No Comments » | Topics: Life |
#1. Go to bed at the same time.
Remember the beginning of your relationship, when you couldn't wait to go to bed with each other to make love? Happy couples resist the temptation to go to bed at different times. They go to bed at the same time, even if one partner wakes up later to do things while their partner sleeps. And when their skins touch it still causes each of them to tingle and unless one or both are completely exhausted to feel sexually excited.
#2. Cultivate common interests.
After the passion settles down, it's common to realize that you have few interests in common. But don't minimize the importance of activities you can do together that you both enjoy. If common interests are not present, happy couples develop them. At the same time, be sure to cultivate interests of your own; this will make you more interesting to your mate and prevent you from appearing too dependent.

How To Be Happy
July 31, 2014 | No Comments » | Topics: How To, Life |
Happiness–it's what we all strive to find and keep, even when it's as elusive as ever. Nobody is jolly and elated all the time, but some individuals are definitely more fulfilled than others. Studies reveal that happiness has little to do with materialistic needs, goods, or wants, or high achievement; it boils down to your outlook on life, the quality of your relationships, and basic amenities like good governance and community resources.Check Step 1 and beyond for more tips and tricks on how to unlock the happier you.
1. Be optimistic
In the 1970s, researchers followed people who'd won the lottery and found that a year afterward, they were no happier than people who didn't. This hedonic adaptation suggests that we each have a baseline level of happiness. No matter what happens, good or bad, the effect on our happiness is temporary, and we tend to revert to our baseline level. Some people have a higher baseline happiness level than others, and that is due in part to genetics, but it's also largely influenced by how you think.
- Add up all the little joyful things that happen to you during the day. For example, there was no traffic on the road, you had a very decent and scrumptious breakfast, your friend said something uproariously humorous that made you laugh, you took your dog out for a walk in the park and played with it. All of these matters added together
- Feel deeply grateful for the things you have. This is a very effective way to be happy. If you feel grateful for the things you have, you not only become more happy but it also helps you to bring more into your life.
- View the glass as half-full instead of half-empty. Your girlfriend/ boyfriend broke up with you? Now you have the chance to meet someone else! You lost your job? Now you can seize the opportunity to find a better one! Adjust your mentality so that, in everything that happens to you, there's some kernel of good.
- Put yourself in situations where fabulous, fortunate things are likely to happen to you. It's easier to remain optimistic if you set yourself up for success. Cheating on a partner, or stealing someone's bicycle — while temporarily thrilling — rarely end well for any party involved. Ask yourself before you act: Am I setting myself up for success or for failure?
- Think of your current situation (however hard it may be) and then think of how much harder some other people have it. Just be happy that you are not in that worse situation. Learn to enjoy your life!

How To Not Care What Other People Think Of You
July 21, 2014 | No Comments » | Topics: How To, Life |
by Mancredible
I can't think of a more important topic to write about than this. If you want to thrive in this world and do great things; If you want to have an impact on people's lives; If you want be happy and live stress-free: You have to stop caring what other people think of you. It's absolutely necessary to freely express yourself. It's the only way to be an originator, a leader, and a creator.
Unfortunately, it's difficult to stop caring about people's opinions. It's in our nature to want to fit in and be accepted by our peers. There is a certain comfort that comes along with feeling accepted. However, if this desire to be accepted becomes the driving force in your life, you will become a watered down version of yourself, frightened to do anything that might attract criticism.
And that's not what you want, is it? But, we've all been afraid to express ourselves at some point in our lives. If you haven't been afraid to show the world something you've created, you're probably not taking enough chances. The act of creating requires you to stand out from the pack and be an individual…voluntarily. This takes guts, the kind of guts that all Mancredible readers should strive to have.
2 things to remember next time you start to worry about someone's opinion…
1. Nobody cares about you as much as you – People are extremely self-centered. And it makes sense: we're trapped in our bodies and being 'you' is all that 'you' know. Everyone is living in their own first person shooter, and so we spend all of our time thinking about ourselves. In fact, most criticism people give is merely a reflection of how they feel about themselves.

As I Began To Love Myself By Charlie Chaplin
July 11, 2014 | No Comments » | Topics: Life |
As I began to love myself I found that anguish and emotional suffering are only warning signs that I was living against my own truth. Today, I know, this is AUTHENTICITY. As I began to love myself I understood how much it can offend somebody as I try to force my desires on this person, even though I knew the time was not right and the person was not ready for it, and even though this person was me. Today I call it RESPECT.
As I began to love myself I stopped craving for a different life, and I could see that everything that surrounded me was inviting me to grow. Today I call it MATURITY. As I began to love myself I understood that in any circumstance, I am in the right place at the right time, and everything happens at the exactly right moment. So I could be calm. Today I call it SELF-CONFIDENCE.
As I began to love myself I quit stealing my own time, and I stopped designing huge projects for the future. Today, I only do what brings me joy and happiness, things I love to do and that make my heart cheer, and I do them in my own way and in my own rhythm. Today I call it SIMPLICITY. As I began to love myself I freed myself of anything that is no good for my health— food, people, things, situations, and everything that drew me down and away from myself. At first I called this attitude a healthy egoism. Today I know it is LOVE OF ONESELF.
As I began to love myself I quit trying to always be right, and ever since, I was wrong less of the time. Today I discovered that is MODESTY. As I began to love myself I refused to go on living in the past and worry about the future. Now, I only live for the moment, where EVERYTHING is happening. Today I live each day, day by day, and I call it FULFILLMENT.
As I began to love myself I recognized that my mind can disturb me and it can make me sick. But as I connected it to my heart, my mind became a valuable ally. Today I call this connection WISDOM OF THE HEART. We no longer need to fear arguments, confrontations or any kind of problems with ourselves or others. Even stars collide, and out of their crashing new worlds are born. Today I know THAT IS LIFE!

What It Feel Like To Be 80 Years Old
July 1, 2014 | No Comments » | Topics: Life |
by Stan Hayward
I am in my 80s. To be this age is largely luck. To be this age and reasonably healthy with peace of mind is even luckier. To be this age, be healthy, and not lonely makes one feel so lucky that you want to gulp the moments down like a drowning man reaching air. I have been in five car crashes without being hurt (none were my fault). During the war as a child, I experienced several bombs falling within close range and where people within yards of myself were killed or injured. Numerous other such incidents sometimes gives one a sense of invulnerability, and other times that the next incident won't be so lucky.
I regret much but also realize that having regrets meant that I had opportunities to regret; I was lucky to have those opportunities. There is a desire to leave one's mark; graffiti on the wall of time; an apt engraving on a tombstone or small plaque on a park bench. The gifts of inheritance that will be gratefully accepted, and carry the essence of one's past. The slogan 'I was here' seems as important as always, but much more in the sense of 'I hope I deserve it' rather than 'And now you know.'
Much thought is sometimes given to organ donations, with an underlying feeling of 'Please God keep me healthy and I will give my body to science in return.' Though living on as a kidney transplant is more of an altruistic gesture than a religious one.
When friends pass away, it is not just their presence that is lost, it is also the memories they have of you. The "Do you remember when…?" conversations that pepper the elderly reminiscences. Fear of death is actually rare and is commonly a joke. On the other hand, fear of losing one's memories, faculties, or independence is real. We put a great value on having people who we can trust — especially to carry out wishes when we are gone. Making final decisions can be upsetting, particularly if they relate to young people who are distant in age and lifestyle yet close in relationship.

the Blackhawks, Kings, and Rangers…along with the other Original 6 arent going anywhere. other US teams that will never move are Philadelphia and Minnesota
having 3 teams in the NYC area is good if they all made the playoffs at ONE TIME(last time was 1994, ironically the last time the NHL seemed headed in the right direction!)
if my memory serves my correctly, LA made the playoffs as did Chicago
5 teams in the US 3 biggest markets…we havent seen it since….and the NHL hasnt been the same…coincidence?]]>
baseball in the area is split between Yankees Fans and Yankee haters(aka Mets fans)
the Devils dont have the "star power" when compared to the Rangers for 2 reasons
1) the Devils stars are defensive, if Stevens could score goals like Jagr did, the Devils would be fine
2) the Rangers are terrible, so hockey coverage in the area(considering the media is NYC based) is awful
a lot of Devils fans are YOUNG, you go to a game, you see tons of moms and dads with young kids…these kids cant go to weekday games unless its winter or spring break. Lamoriello has tried to get the league to put more Devils games on weekends
certain markets could care less when games are(Detroit, Colorado, Philly, and the canadian teams), but those teams who do well on weekends(like the Devils) should have more games on weekends
if the Devils rivalry games get 17000+ on a weds night, put a non-rivalry game on a weekend and get around the same number
there are many reasons why the Devils have an attendance problem]]>

Spin the Agencies of Record

It's Friday, which means another edition of our series in which Bill McGowan — Clarity Media Group founder and coach to execs from Facebook, Airbnb and more — weighs in on the week's most interesting and controversial stories.
Cook to Perfection
Apple CEO Tim Cook wins the "Pitch Perfect" of the week award. Not only did he share his sexual orientation in a thoughtful and dignified forum (BusinessWeek essay) but he demonstrated how the tone of coming out has been transformed over the past decade.
Something wicked this way comes…or, more accurately, it has never left.
The PR agency has evolved in many ways — integration of digital, trying to understand social, open work spaces, and anything else that makes them resemble an advertising agency.
Although the thousands of public relations firms across this great land of ours have been changing, there are still some surreptitious, blood-curling, creepy things rearing its ugly head in cube farms everywhere. Be they boutique-size or big-time, all agencies still offer horrific aspects of an industry that wants to kill us all in a gruesome B-list scary movie fashion.
So, here's a special Halloween edition of #5Things: 5 Scary Things Still Lurking in PR Agencies.
A recent guest post on this blog concerned the fact that B2B marketing often lacks "emotional appeal."
Emotion in B2B marketing, you ask? That's unpossible!
It's true, though: a recent survey performed by The Economist and Peppercomm found that business audiences want something a little more "substantial" from the brands they know. And, as the graphic below shows us, there's a serious disconnect between marketers and the people they're trying to reach.
Despite this fact, the vast majority (93 percent) of marketers plan on sending more content to executives next year.
It's time to rethink that relationship. We asked Ted Birkhahn, president and partner at Peppercomm, for his take on the survey results.
Don't mess with Olivia Pope. #Scandal starts NOW! pic.twitter.com/V2k6v4PwRs
— Scandal (@ScandalABC) October 31, 2014
A big focus for this week's episode of Scandal was on her actual PR work, so yay! That's interesting.
Unfortunately, she got duped into believing that her crazy ass client was wrongfully convicted of shooting a former president. Merp.
But hey, we got a mini-lesson in using Twitter to make stuff happen. Also, how about Huck actually smiling?! Read more

In the PRNewserverse, we heart our journalist friends.
We appreciate their dedication to the craft of sharing stories and the sacrifices they make to do so. Consider the White House Press Corps. Their behavioral patterns follow the ebbs and flows of whatever the administration occupies the position at the time.
One small problem: President Obama isn't that crazy about them. He has tried ignoring them, to the point of being given a petition. He has done a "Statue of Liberty" flag football move to avoid them en route to a fundraiser. He has even pointed his finger in their faces and accused them of spreading cynicism.
Now, the administration has effectively instituted a cover charge for reporters to get in the club to which they already belong. Read more
And no, NCAA homers, that's NOT for DePaul.
If you dig the DePaul University Blue Demons, then prepare to argue about this haute couture (which is not a Halloween costume). If you don't understand the reference to DIBS (said university's mascot's name) or the Chicago-based institution of higher learning, then you will probably bemoan this hellacious campaign.
According to CBS Radio's WBBM-FM 105.9 in the Windy City, "a group of DePaul students have been selling T-shirts to raise awareness of sexual assault, but the message on those shirts isn't sitting well with some women."
"Consent the D," double-entendre fans.
In news we missed yesterday, the University of North Carolina paid Edelman $782,000 for "several months" of service, but its reputation isn't anywhere close to being repaired.
The school felt the need to hire the firm earlier this Summer, when a former student-turned-whistleblower sought to bring more attention to the long-simmering academic fraud scandal enveloping the school by revealing that his "tutors" did most of his work for him.
Not content, he blew the whistle again last week — and now the world knows that more than 3,000 student athletes got what amounts to a free pass for classes that, in many cases, didn't even exist.
The New York Times report was brutal.
Earlier this summer, advocacy group ChangeTheMascot.org created a PSA to make both sympathizers and opponents pay full attention to its message.
It's 2014 and this organization is still fighting the fight to ask — or, rather, demand – that Daniel Snyder #ChangeTheMascot. You know which one we mean.
Sure, the NFL is steeped in tradition. Yes, the NFL team in Washington has embraced its name for more than 80 years. Yet life goes on, seasons change, and traditions are reconsidered. If this new PSA doesn't make him consider the issue more carefully, then dude has some serious issues.

Son Of Sardaar First Day Business-BOIank_16n | November 14, 2012, 1:52 PM | no comments | 0 views
Wednesday 14th November 2012 11.30 IST
Boxofficeindia.Com Trade Network
Son Of Sardaar collected around 8.50 crore nett on day one as per early estimates. Again like Jab Tak Hai Jaan the film was hit by Diwali Puja, actually it was affected more by Diwali Puja as its best business was in circuits that are hit hard by Diwali festivities like East Punjab, CI and Rajasthan.
The clash with Jab Tak Hai Jaan also hurt the film especially UP where the lack of good single screens meant business remained behind Jab Tak Hai Jaan when it should have been going by trends in MP where the release was balanced and Son Of Sardaar came out of head.
The film will show a huge jump today but again the clash will mean business is held back to a certain extent.

Names of officers in fatal Weare police shooting remain withheld
She said it will be "probably several more weeks" before her office is prepared to release a preliminary finding, which will include the names of the two officers who fired their weapons and struck DeJesus.
Both are veteran, full-time officers who have been placed on paid administrative leave pending the results of the investigation, which is standard procedure.
The New Hampshire Attorney General's Drug Task Force was not involved in the undercover operation, officials have said.
Neither Hillsborough County Attorney Patricia M. LaFrance nor Morrell would comment on this Wednesday.
LaFrance said: "The Attorney General's office is investigating. I'm not commenting on that."
Interim Weare police administrator Arthur Walker said in August that he believes the officers acted appropriately and looks forward to the Attorney General's report.
